I remember when I first saw photos of the 1968 Ferrari S Modula Concept car, thinking it was the coolest looking car I had ever seen, and in many ways, I still love its amazing design. The Modula was so far ahead of its time, it is amazing. I think Ferrari, should bring this car to life today, and update it. In particular, I think if they ditched the pop-up headlights, and while moving them to the corners, it would look incredible!

If you think about it, it would almost appear if the Lamborghini Countach which was launched in the early 1970s, was based upon the design of the 1968 Ferrari S Modulu. Particularly in the sense that the Ferrari has a long, swooping, continuous curve, which today is the trademark of modern Lamborghini.

Welcome To Jake's Car World

My name is Jake Ehrlich and I am the editor and publisher of Jake's Car World.

I have an interesting story to share with you. I became fascinated with cars when I was little kid playing with my Hot Wheels. When I was in the third grade, I started drawing Speed Racer's Mach 5 with a pencil and paper. Every time, I would daw the Mach 5, I would try to improve the lines.

When I was fourteen, I fell in love with the 1969 Chevy Camaro, and at the same time, I would go to school everyday, and in class I would sit and draw cars all day long.

When I was 17 I wanted to become an automotive designer, and I was talented at designing cars, but I just could not imaging going to work for an American car company as a designer. This was in the mid 1980s, when American cars were at their all-time worst. This was the generation of cars cars that had evolved from the Gremlin, to the Pinto, into the Chrysler Reliant-K.

I remember thinking at the time, that the only option would have been to learn German, and move to Germany, and I did not want to do so. So I went into clothing design. Years later, I started designing computer hardware, and software, which I still do with my company BulletTrain.

I also blog like crazy, so it made sense to begin Jake's Car World, which I sincerely hope you enjoy.
